I sat down with my "Orderliness" unit from KONOS vol I and took a good look at it. I have come to the conclusion that there is much meat in this unit...and I don't want to race through it.

I finally had the freedom and realization that I can do this however I want!! This then is the joy of homeschooling! (I really can make things too difficult on myself)

I want to start with the Solar System.

Seasons.. months..

I would love to take the kids to a construction site to have them observe a building being built from foundation to finish (or maybe several different sites in various forms of construction).

We can do plants...

and animals...

and rocks - especially since DS6 wants to know about dinosaurs.

So this could take a very long time or a very short time, depending.

I am easily distracted. *LOL*

It is so great to know that we can do this at our own pace!

I breathe a sigh of relief and head to Answers in Genesis to look up dinosaur/fossil books. (They apparently can't be found in my library)

(Pluto will always be a planet to me)
